CARLTON midfielder Natalie Plane will miss the rest of the NAB AFL Women's competition after suffering a high-grade ankle sprain against Collingwood last Friday. 

Plane, 20, had only one touch last Friday before coming off the ground. Tahni Nestor has been added to the Carlton squad. 

Coach Damien Keeping told carltonfc.com.au Nestor would fit in well. 

"While it is very disappointing to lose Natalie with a season-ending injury, we now welcome Tahni as a top-up player," Keeping said.

"Tahni has a fierce thirst for the contest and is a neat kick. Tahni's openness to learning will ensure she fits with the culture of our playing group."

Nestor, 25, is a defender and played 15 matches for the Eastern Devils in the VFL Women's competition last year.
